The UKCoastGuide website is a new site that has been developed to provide an online guide to the fascinating area which is the UK coastline. The guide covers the whole of the UK coast and is organised on a regional basis - see map and links below. The guide provides details of each resort and town along the coast, with details of beaches, natural features, attractions and hotels, guest houses and cottages. This is an ongoing project and new material is being developed all of the time. At present all of the main resorts within each region are included in the Guide and small resorts and villages are included under the heading of the main resorts. This is due to time pressures and because of the lack of readily available material in some areas. It is hoped that all coastal resorts and settlements, whatever their size, will get their own page at some time in the near future. If you would like to suggest a new area or to submit material, you are very welcome - please follow the link on the Contacts page. UK Coastal Regions map

UK Coast Guide
The main part
of the site contains details of coastal towns and villages, beaches and coastline,
natural and manmade features, such as piers and harbours and wildlife and natural habitats.
As there is a great deal to our coastline this will be developed on a regional
basis starting with the South West. Over time it is intended to make the
UKCoastGuide a comprehensive source of information about this fascinating area.
There are hundreds
of beaches situated within the UK coastline - with a great variety of features,
facilities and conditions available to the public - to find your ideal beach whether it is a secluded
cove or wide flat sandy beach, go to the resort section for detailed information.
Our
coastline has an amazing variety of habitats within its length, ranging from
picturesque coves and windswept headlands to busy ports and derelict industrial
areas. It is our intention to provide details of all of these areas, as they all
add to the rich heritage that makes up our coastline.
First within the listings section will be details of
accommodation. Whether you are looking for top grade hotels or coastal cottages
UKCoastGuide will have full details. This section will be organised on a
regional and town basis with full search facilities.
Whether
your idea of an ideal activity is sunbathing or you prefer something more
strenuous, the chances are that you will be able to pursue this at the
coast. There is a wide selection of activities that can be found on our
coastline - these range from a gentle stroll to the next bay, to swimming and snorkelling,
to more energetic activities such as sailing, surfing, windsurfing and kite
sailing. See Activities section.
A
huge selection of attractions are available within the coastal area and this
section will have details of many of them. From piers and harbours to fun fairs
and roller coasters, the listings will have details of what's available in your chosen
area. For details of attractions look in the resort pages.
